YouTube is a Treasure Trove for TC Fans
Edited on Sun Oct-18-09 08:58 AM by XanaDUer
I like to listen to music in one browser while on DU, so I leave YouTube open. A few weeks ago, I thought, is there any TC stories on there? And, are there! A YT poster called FunWithStuttering has posted quite a few cases.

Yesterday, I learned about an obscure 1963 TC case, "The Lesbian Bride Murder", complete with creepy music and 8mm home movies:

And the "Sweet 16 Murder Case" from 1959:

There is a multi-part interview from 2007 with Paul Bernardo, looking esp. twitchy and creepy:

Many old Zodiac clips, too.

I was able to watch an excellent documentary (Canadian?) on Paul Bernardo and Karla Holmolka that I, probably, would never have been able to see, "Investigation : The Ken & Barbie Murders":

3. Thanks for the links.
I did a little goggling for the cases cited in the TC vintage video films posted on youtube that were made by Chris Hanson, and the only hits were directed back to these videos. While I really enjoyed them, and they make use of wonderful creepy film making devices, I think they may be fictitious short films. Effective and creepy nonetheless.

Thanks for the head's up on the other links. It never occurred to me to search you tube for footage of cases I'm interested in. :hi:

4. I thought that was weird
I did the same thing and looked for other links to those stories and was not able to find anything else other than those ancient home videos on YouTube.

One of us needs to write a tc book!

5. I must admit that I went to YouTube awhile back in order to search for footage with audio...
hoping to hear what the voices of some of the notorious sounded like.

Thanks for the tip about "The Lesbian Bride Murder"
I love that music! Sounds like a Martian funeral parlor...
